Sorry for the confusion.

My application is a local COM server(not COM+) that runs as a NT service.
This service provides maibox access to all the users in our system. I would
like to register the event sink for each mailbox alias configured in our
system, so that when changes happen in the exchange server, our application
is informed.

The question is if running the service under the local system account is
enough to do all the above functionalities? Or what are the security rights
needed to run the com server as a nt service? It could be helpful I you could
send me a sample of the event sink registration c++ code.

Ps: During testing I have seen that I could access the mailboxes and recieve
notifications from the exchange server using the local system account. What
fails is only the registration of event sink:-(

Cheers,
Joji
